Mesut Ozil: Did loyalty cost the German his place at Arsenal?
By Varun Aithal
Mikel Arteta has preferred youngsters over the experienced playmaker during his tenure at the Emirates.
At the moment, it is difficult for Mesut Ozil to even get a glance of the squad as he was pushed into the reserves. With the player being on the other side of 30, Mesut Ozil should definitely look for greener pastures apart from doing good work and predicting the score on social media platforms.
It is hard to see Mesut not even being on the bench for one of the Gunners. He is one of those players who still has it in him to change the match within a blink of an eye either with his passes, crosses, or crazy goals.
James Rodrigues, once regarded as “done and dusted”, has hit top form in the Premier League since his move to Everton from Real Madrid. Likewise, there are clubs whose fortunes can be tweaked by the German international.
As a famous saying goes “die as a hero or live as a villain”, Ozil should part his ways with Arsenal which would benefit the club as they are struggling with the finances in the post-pandemic era. Or so say they.
